Person:John Illes (1)

On 1850 census, age 2, with parents in Marion, Hocking Co., Oh.[p 861, fam #248/256] On 1860 census, age 12 with father and step-mother, Falls Twp, Hocking Co., Oh.[p 113 fam #423/425] In 1880 he is named on grandfather's estate as "surviving heir of deceased daughter Isabella." States he is of Polk Co., Ia. at this time. [entry #10, p 5] but not found on the 1880 census in this area. He is listed with the heirs living out of state in November 1880 when the court attempted to notify all heirs about the filing of the court action against Catharine Rittgers, widow of Jacob. He apparently traveled to Iowa to acknowledge this action as it is stated that he was in Polk Co., Ia., then. [Abst. 62638] We find no evidence he ever lived here, and no information where he was living "out of state".
